Shopping In Italy?

I know the euro is more than the dollar but is it worth it to buy stuff at the outlets?

Will i get a good deal?

TIA

Re: Shopping In Italy?

you don't necessarily need to go to the outlets.

I went to one across the border in Switzerland last year, and didn't come back with much (except AWESOMELY warm down coat I am wearing today) but honestly, it depends on what you are looking for.

when I shop there I look for things I CANNOT get here (also wearing a cotton Kappa MILANO sweater that I bought there that they do not sell here)

I shop at Zara's...believe it or not, it's cheaper AND the stuff is better. I LOVE shopping at Zara's overseas...H & M not so much. Mango's in awesome...LOVE their jeans.

go into the little boutiques. I bought some awesome no name stuff...

EVERYTHING looks designer and different over there, so don't worry about buying 'outlet" designer prices when you can buy some cool stuff that NO ONE this side of the Atlantic has (well....maybe me, but when do we see each other Chat Icon )
